Nothing yet for me! .....

Thank you so much evrybody! it feels so good! I already prepared I 130 for my parents. I am going to send it on Monday! Who is with me on new Journey????????

Can u do that right away? I'm planing on doing that for my mom.

Congrats to everybody!

And at the same time some of the November filers are still waiting for their interviews. What can we do if some local offices work faster than others

Word!

Wow! This waiting game is now getting to me!! We are Dec. filers as well and it seemed like the past 2 months just flew by. I thought we made good time with the biometrics and interview, after that it felt like time is just crawling by. The hard part is, there is no one in our area who is in any of the immigration forums so not much to compare time-wise. We only have to rely on previous applicants we know of, about one per year and the timeline is about the same. I also found out that our district court holds oath ceremonies once a month. Only one came out in the news by far, the one in Feb. and none for the one in March. There is one in April and we are hoping we will have our oath-taking then, which is 2 months after the interview, pretty much the timeline everyone had previously. If not, we wait for May.... we have this big trip planned in June and we sure hope we'll have the blue passport then since it's such a hassle getting a visa... sorry, just venting. Hopefully, I'll get positive vibes from the good people here...

I'm still waiting for my interview letter.. What it bothers me the most is looking at some January filers that have their interview schedule for this month!

Hello Alaskan,

Now I am placed in line for an interview as of yesterday, the 14th. Next step is to wait for the actual letter about the interview specifics like date and time.

Could you please let me know when you get your oficial letter? The reason I am asking is to see the timeframe between online notice and actual letter date. Given that you were noticed on the 6th (if I am not mistaken).

Thanks

Oki no prob. Maybe you will get before me. Because I'm in NY and here it looks like takes longer than other states..

To be honest Brother H is very direct. IO has a job to do. If they need to ask for additional information they can. Just paying $680 does not give US Citizentship. If they decline the application or does not provide answer in 120 days then the case will be transferred to a court where applicant will have a chance to present their case. I would say hold your horses and let the process work. You can always make an infopass appointment and find out additional information. I think OP did every thing by hiring an atty and contacting the congressman. Now there is no reason to throw rocks at IO when he/she doing the job. Give it time.

One thing is to be direct and another sarcastic and offensive. Just answer what the person asked without ur stupid nonsense.. And it is not just $680 there is also taxes we pay as lpr that is part of the requirements to become a citizen, and other legal fees that some ppl have.. I think the ppl that comes legally to this country pay their fair share to be a citizen. We come to this site for support! And help.

I appreciate your response but don't see why you had to be so sarcastic.

Totally agree with u! He loves to give those kind of unnecessary answers. First we pay that I.O salary, so we are entitle to a decent service. after all we are paying every possible fee there is out there it's not like the government it's giving citizenship away for free. And if she feels the process has take longer than it should she should be able to do whatever she can in her power. My mom taught me that IF U DONT HAVE anything NICE to say, DON'T SAY nothing at all.

Thanks guys!!

I start to believe I have been on a waitlist all along, I just received another email and text message, stating the following:

w00t.. I know the date within 14 days now :D

Now, I do have my mom visiting me here in April, it would be cool if she could actually be present during the oath (if I pass the interview AND if everything goes as smooth as it is doing right now and I don't have to wait until May or later lol).

Wow that was fast! I'm still waiting! Dam USCIS in NY has to be so slow! Ppl in January filers already have their interview schedule for this month! I can't believe it..

When u get them u'll know by reading them. !

Well, today is my 3 year anniversary and..... at 7:15 am this morning:

Yeah, I also start to think this isn't coincidence but probably something new that they don't go ahead until the 3 year anniversary, seeing it happened to so many of us here now.

Cool! I was Place in line for interview on my 3rd year anniversary too/.. now waiting for the dam letter!

Yes, but I filed in early Jan. Brooklyn.

Someone in november filers told me that NYC takes usually 2-3 months after u are in line for interview.. I hope is not the case!

Thank you Alaskan.

Good luck with everything. So, you still have been to actually interview yet?

I have not received any text, nor letter following that yellow letter. Well, I guess I will have to wait more!

Thanks again. Blessings.

Yeah I'm still waiting for the interview appointment. Good luck to u too

If you were just placed in line for interview it may take a little longer for you to a get an actual letter (looks like NY takes 2-3 months)

That's crazy ppl in my month already getting their interview letters ..

Anyone here from NYC?

Congratulations! Has anyone in New York/NYC (not LI) been scheduled for an interview yet?

Hi December filer here from Queens.. My field office is long island city. On march 6 I was place in line for interview, so I'm still waiting for the letter..

I have not received a letter, but I received a text update that I was in line for interview on march 6.
